Asado con cuero is a traditional South American dish where meat is specially prepared over a parilla, or open fire. Asado con cuero is unique; however, because it involves cooking the meat while still inside the animal's skin. The skin keeps all of the fat and juices inside the animal, which gives it extra flavor (Uruguay). This dish is a gaucho favorite, and is served at many different gaucho clubs. Gauchos will camp out, drink some mate tea, and snack on asado con cuero under an ombu tree to relax from their hard work schedule (Country Reports).
